"A dog has all too brief a
span, too soon he must depart. But each one leaves, indelibly,
his pawprints on my heart."
Seefeld Jezebelle produced
2 litters:
Litter #1 - by Ch Salgray's Minute Man consisted of 6 plain
and two flashy puppies....a dog and a bitch. The bitch of
course stayed!! She was Rupik Joybelle, another with great
character. "Gemma" won consitently from her puppy
days, including BIS and multiple BOB's (she lived to be
13 years) In due course Gemma was mated to Am import Braemerwood
Proclamation or Seefeld, himself a grandson of Minute Man.
Rupik Daisy Belle was kept from this litter.
Litter #2 - by Rupik Brass Tacks, himself a great grandson
of Tiger Belle through Tinkerbelle's litter sister, Rosabelle.
The bitch Rupik Jinglebelle was kept from this litter. She
in due course, was herself mated to Am Ch Braemerwood Procalamation
of Seefeld and produced a red dog destined to become Ch
Rupik Bellringer of Seefeld.
For many years I had greatly admired a Canadian
dog....Can/Am
Ch Bellcrest Just Watch Me. The decision was made to
contact his breeder/owner, Shirley Bell to discuss the possibility
of my importing a son of Just Watch Me......so my beloved
Filmore came to England and I made two wonderful new friends......Shirley
Bell and Filmore's breeder Anne Lucas.
Filmore ....Can
Ch Lounsbury's Flashback to Rupik SOM.....more than
proved his worth, especially as I had hoped when mated to
Bellringer daughters.
Bella Dora in particular proved the quality
of this combination. Her one litter, to Filmore, produced:
Can Ch Rupik Play Back
DOM (Rodlin
Kennels)
Can Ch Rupik Double Back
DOM (Tickitbou
Kennels)
Norwegian Ch Rupik Look
Back (Boxerhaven
Kennels)
Rupik Just Back (Rupik
Kennels)
Rupik Talk Back (Rupik
Kennels)
Now back to Rupik Bella Marguerita.....her
litter to Filmore gave me Rupik Wind Chime who in turn was
mated to a Filmore son, Hertfordian Pack Leader at Rupik
(Filmore to an Eight Bells daughter) producing my latest
winner, Rupik Windfall, 'Cassie'.
Yes, I finally ran out of "Bell"
names!!!! So now I have my 8th generation in tail bitch
line spanning 29 years. (She also goes back to Tiger Belle
twice more, in the 8th and 9th generations)
Always bred for temperament and health, I
heart test and hip x-ray all my boxers.
